Love Ripples Throughout Eternity

“All the things we make so much drama about, don’t mean a hill of beans. We’re all just passing through a short time and the stuff that we have all this anxiety about and we argue over means nothing. In the end, it only comes down to love. That’s really the only legacy you’ve got, I think, that lasts. The love you show your children, the love you show your friends, that ripples throughout eternity. The rest of it’s just rubbish.” -Alan Kay

Ten people dropped into the wilderness. Only objective, outlast the other contestants. There’s no show quite like "Alone."

It’s primitive and simple. Last one to tap, wins.

There've been 11 seasons, but nobody has stuck out quite like Alan Kay from season one. On the surface, he was unremarkable. He wasn’t physically exceptional. He didn’t have the best shelter or even collect the most food. And yet, he wins.

While others wrestled with their demons in the darkness, Alan had already made peace with his. His words after winning weren't about gritting your teeth or endurance - they were about love and legacy. The guy who won a show called "Alone" was the one who understood connection is all that matters.
